Before installing your gasoline engine, please carefully read the manufacturer's manual and all parts
assembly recommendations including exhaust, mounts, ignition, installation, operation and maintenance. The
information contained in this manual is extremely important.
The model airplane's firewall is provided in correct place, with correct angles for turbine installation and with
markings for the 4 carbon fiber mount holes. Drill in the 4 marked positions with a drill and 5mm drill bit.
Position the 4 screws 5x20mm with the washers 5mm inside the firewall. Apply a medium degree threadlocker
(removable) to the screw threads and screw the carbon fiber turbine mount in front of the firewall, ensuring
that a solid, firm fixation is obtained with 90 degree alignment with the firewall. Position the turbine on the
mount to obtain the turbine´s 4 horizontal fixing holes and 3 vertical fixing holes location.
IMPORTANT: The original metal tube for lubricating the gearbox, when installed, is too high in relation to the
carbon fiber turbine mount, being necessary to adapt it to allow the later installation of the upper cowling.
It is recommended to apply water-based thermal protection paint containing ceramic microspheres to
prevent overheating of the turbine mount and cowling.
All fuel hoses and turbine cables must under no circumstances come into contact with parts of the turbine
block that are very hot during and after operation.
Above: 3 thermal protection paint layers apllied on the carbon fiber turbine mount.
Above: turbine position on the carbon fiber turbine mount and lubrification tube position.
